Welcome to Bridge Ark Group, part of Bridge Ark Partners Ltd ("Bridge Ark", "we", "us", "our"). These Terms & Conditions govern your use of our website, the application process, and any exploratory conversations that follow. By accessing our website or submitting an application, you agree to these Terms in full. If you do not agree, you should discontinue use immediately.
Bridge Ark Group, part of Bridge Ark Partners Ltd, is a direct acquirer of established, privately-owned businesses. We are not a broker, intermediary, or advisory service acting on your behalf, and we do not run a listing, auction, or marketing process for your business.
Bridge Ark works exclusively with private business owners considering, exploring, or planning a sale of their business, and owners who value a private, direct conversation over a public or brokered process.
We reserve the right to decline any enquiry or application, at our discretion, without obligation to provide a reason. If you are currently represented by a broker, adviser, or intermediary for the sale of your business, please see Section 11 below.
3.1 Direct Acquisition Enquiry & Assessment. This includes an initial application, an exploratory conversation, and — where mutual interest exists — a deeper review of your business under a mutual non-disclosure agreement. Submitting an application, or having a conversation with us, does not constitute an offer to purchase your business, a valuation of your business, or a commitment by either party to proceed further. Any offer to acquire your business will only be made in writing, following due diligence, and will be subject to formal legal agreement.
3.2 No Fee for Initial Enquiry. The application and initial exploratory conversation are free of charge, with no obligation on either side. Should the relationship progress to formal due diligence or a transaction, any associated costs (e.g. legal fees) will be discussed and agreed separately, in writing, before being incurred.
4.1 What We Protect. Bridge Ark Partners Ltd commits to confidentiality regarding business information, financial data, personal circumstances, documents shared in preparation for or during any conversation, exit intentions, strategic plans, and operating details. This is formalised through a mutual non-disclosure agreement (NDA) prior to any exchange of detailed financial or commercially sensitive information. Full detail on how this information is handled is set out in our Privacy Policy.
4.2 Your Responsibilities. You agree not to disclose Bridge Ark's methodologies or internal processes to third parties, misrepresent your relationship with Bridge Ark, or publicly comment on or summarise the substance of any engagement without our consent. Confidentiality is mutual.
While Bridge Ark acts in good faith and with genuine acquisition intent, we do not and cannot guarantee that any conversation will result in an offer, that any offer made will be accepted, that a transaction will complete once terms are agreed, or any specific valuation, outcome, or timeframe. Your business remains your own decision to make, at every stage.
All Bridge Ark website content, materials, and branding remain the exclusive intellectual property of Bridge Ark Partners Ltd. You agree not to reproduce, distribute, modify, or reverse-engineer any part of our website or materials without written permission. Violation may result in legal action.
To the fullest extent permitted by law: Bridge Ark shall not be liable for indirect, incidental, punitive, or consequential damages; any liability will be limited to the amount paid for the relevant service, if any; Bridge Ark is not responsible for decisions you make based on general guidance discussed in conversation; you remain fully responsible for your own decisions; no fiduciary relationship is formed; and engagements are advisory in nature until a formal, written acquisition agreement is signed by both parties. You are strongly encouraged to obtain independent legal, financial, and tax advice at every stage, including before entering into any NDA or acquisition agreement.
You confirm that you are the legal owner, or an authorised representative of the business owner; that engaging with Bridge Ark does not breach any existing agreements you are party to, including any current broker or advisory arrangements; that you are eligible to conduct business transactions in England and Wales; and that you comply with all applicable local laws and regulations.
You agree not to scrape or extract data from our website, reproduce content for commercial use, or interfere with site functionality or security. Breach may result in restricted access.
Where an application or conversation proceeds, please provide accurate, current information to the best of your knowledge, and attend any scheduled conversation prepared and without distraction. Failure to provide accurate information may end the process at our discretion.
If you are already represented by a broker regarding the sale of your business, please disclose this before proceeding. We are happy to inform your broker directly, where appropriate. Bridge Ark does not circumvent broker relationships, and free introductory conversations are provided without obligation regardless of any existing representation.
These Terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales. Any disputes will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of UK courts.
We may update these Terms periodically. Continued use of our services constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.
